table 10: Remote Module Commands

Notes:

1 These commands exist only for GK-604 analog systems and are included in the digital system for compatibility.

2 Similar to Note 1, but are for internal use only.

3 These commands exist only for GK-604D digital system.

4 Firmware Version (Command 4) returns the Remote Module version for analog systems and the probe firmware version for digital systems.

Example 1: LOAD PROBE DEFAULTS

Loads probe default gauge parameters (calibration factors):

Command: D<CR>

Response: GT:70A ZR:0.0000 GF:1.0000 GO:0.0000 GT:70B ZR:0.0000 GF:1.0000 GO:0.0000

Channels VA and VB: Linear Conversion

Zero Read Offset = 0

Gauge Factor = 1

Gauge Offset = 0

Results in digits display = 2500(Vout)

Example 2: ENTER GAUGE PARAMETERS

Enter and store gauge parameters for each axis:

A-axis: Linear conversion

Zero Read Offset = 0

Gauge Factor = .62

Gauge Offset = 0

Command: G70A/L/0/.62/0<CR>

Response: GT:70A ZR:0.0000 GF:0.6200 GO:0.0000 GT:70B ZR:0.0000 GF:1.0000 GO:0.0000

B-axis: Linear conversion

Zero Read Offset = 0

Gauge Factor = 1.005

Gauge Offset = 0

Command: G70B/L/0/1.005/0<CR>

Response: GT:70A ZR:0.0000 GF:0.6200 GO:0.0000 GT:70B ZR:0.0000 GF:1.005 GO:0.0000

Example 3: DISPLAY GAUGE PARAMETERS

Display gauge parameters stored in the probe:

Command: G<CR>

Response: GT:70A ZR:0.0000 GF:0.6200 GO:0.0000 GT:70B ZR:0.0000 GF:1.005 GO:0.0000

Example 4: DISPLAY PROBE SERIAL NUMBER

Display the serial number that is stored in the probe:

Command: #<CR>

Response: 6001-E,126543

Example 5: ENTER PROBE SERIAL NUMBER

Note: The GK-604D IRA uses the serial number to determine the inclinometer probe units (metric or English) by reading the model number portion of the serial number string (the part to the left of the comma). If the model number does not contain an "-E" or a "–M" then unpredictable results may occur.

Enter and store probe serial number:

(Up to 16 alphanumeric characters and symbols may be stored.)

Command: #sn6001-E,126543<CR>

Response: 6001-E,126543
